Bidvine Offers The Chance To Get Paid For Coaching People In FIFA

Trending News: You Can Now Get Paid To Coach People In FIFA

Long Story Short

Quit your day job. You can now make money coaching people to play EA Sports’ FIFA Football.

Long Story

How good are you at FIFA? Are you the party patsy who’s always choosing Brazil and still getting pwned by your fellow players? Or do you dominate your friends, both in person and online?

Because if it’s the latter, you can make money from that. And not just a small amount but, if you live by U.K. currency, a perfectly respectable £15 an hour (that’s $21 an hour in the United States, or $26 an hour in Australia).

“FIFA seems to be one of those games where skill is important, it’s not something you can just be automatically good at, and it has a prestigious ranking system, so I’m not surprised that gamers wanted coaches for it,” Bidvine's co-founder is quoted in the Independent as saying.

After the Call of Duty service, Bidvine listened to customer feedback, which overwhelmingly requested the scheme to be extended to FIFA.

But not just anyone can become a coach. To be eligible, players must prove level and ability, with Bidvine saying on its website that only those in “Division 1 within Online Seasons and/or FIFA Ultimate Team” will be considered. This is not for your stoner housemate.

Otherwise, potential coaches must provide proof of account, a photo ID, a working PlayStation 4 or Xbox One and a strong internet connection. Easy.

Already play FIFA eight hours a day (and honestly, to be Div 1, you probably do)? Then it’s time for you to quite that pesky day job.

Does teaching people how to cheat at FIFA count?

Drop This Fact

A longstanding rumour is that the original FIFA game avoided cancellation because the developers occasionally hid from EA’s top management.
